Trade Show Details
CIHS is a dense product-sourcing show for the hardware categories used across construction, maintenance, workshops and distribution. Hand, power and pneumatic tools, abrasives, garden equipment, small machinery, building hardware, fasteners, wire and mesh, locks and security products allow buyers to compare broad assortments and private-label suppliers without the heavier plant focus of an industrial machinery fair.
The fair is jointly organised by the China National Hardware Association and Koelnmesse, linking China's manufacturing base with the international hardware-show network.
